WHO THE HELL IS SOPHIE VENZ?

(This is the part where I talk about myself in third person. I make some jokes. But I am genuinely afraid of Elon Musk. And I really do like presents. Please like me!!!)

Sophie Venz (she/her) is a freelance writer and editor from Queensland, Australia. She currently resides in Edinburgh, Scotland. Her dad doesn’t understand why she ever traded the Sunshine State for a cloudy country, and honestly, neither does she.

Prior to going freelance, Sophie was the Deputy Editor of Forbes Advisor Australia, working closely with the team in the UK. You can find her bylines in Forbes, SmartCompany, Cosmo (UK), Mamamia, Punkee, Frankie Magazine and more.

With a strong to desire to be offline but an even stronger desire to be a leading meme connoisseur and an avid Twitter* shitposter, Sophie is always in a personal conflict with herself when it comes to the internet. While she’s actively on social media, she is actually a grumpy old man living in the woods, trapped inside a 20-somethings body.

Point is: If you need something from Sophie—like to ask to work together, receive her rate sheet, discuss her conspiracy theory surrounding The Irwins, tell her she’s more than welcome to support both the Geelong Cats and the Gold Coast Suns in the AFL, or to send her a zillion presents—you should email her.

It is a very easy email, thanks to ‘Sophie Venz’ being a very easy-to-Google name: hello@sophievenz.com.

Or if you want to send her handwritten love letters which she’ll keep forevermore, you can find send them via snail mail to:

The Nexus Room

Edinburgh, Scotland

United Kingdom

*Yes Elon I know it’s called X now. Please don’t sue me. I am a broke creative and last time I checked, you are VERY wealthy!!! Let’s just agree to disagree <3
